For integration into an existing, heterogeneous IT landscape, mpmX offers a variety of standard connectors for data transfer as well as a range of standardized programming interfaces (APIs) that simplify communication with existing systems. The available APIs differ depending on the deployment model, Software as a Service (SaaS/Cloud) or on-premise.

Example: Setting filters externally using the FieldAPI and the SelectValues method
The Field API of mpmX allows you to access certain fields of the data model externally and interact with them. The selectValues method selects certain values in a field that are passed as parameters via the API.
Method:
qlik.app.field.selectValues(array, toggle, softlock)
Parameter:
•array: Array of qFieldValues that are to be selected
•toggle: boolean. If the parameter is true, the current selected status is toggled.
•softlock: boolean. If the parameter is true, the set status is overwritten
Examples:
Array of qFieldValues is selected
var app = qlik.openApp('c31e2aba-3b46-4b13-8b87-c5c2514dea1d', config); app.field('LastName').selectValues([{qText:"Andersson"},{qText:"Bush"},{qText:"Obama"}], true, true),
Simplified syntax with strings and numbers
var app = qlik.openApp ('c31e2aba-3b46-4b13-8b87-c5c2514dea1d', config); app.field(fld).selectValues([5], true, true); app.field(fld).selectValues(["Andersson"], true,true);
Example: External setting of filters using bookmarks
The Bookmark API contains methods that make it possible to interact with bookmarks within the mpmX application. Bookmarks contain statuses of specific filters that affect the current app when the bookmark is applied. The use of bookmarks enables efficient collaboration with team members so that all employees can quickly access the same data selection.
•First, you need to connect to the existing mpmX app to create, delete or apply bookmarks. To do this, use the qlik.openApp-Methode.
var config = {
host: 'QSE_domain',
prefix: '/',
port: 443,
isSecure: true,
webIntegrationId: 'web-integration-id-here' //only needed for SaaS editions
};
require(["js/qlik"], function(qlik) {
//open apps -- inserted here --
var app = qlik.openApp('c31e2aba-3b46-4b13-8b87-c5c2514dea1d', config);
//apply a bookmark
app.bookmark.apply('pPvpTN');
Example applications
| a. | Create a new bookmark based on the current selection Use the qlik.app.bookmark.create method to create a bookmark based on the current selection. |
require(["js/qlik"], function(qlik) {
//open apps -- inserted here --
var app = qlik.openApp('c31e2aba-3b46-4b13-8b87-c5c2514dea1d', config);
//create a bookmark
app.bookmark.create('Test','Test bookmark','fmcJkH');
}
| b. | Apply an existing bookmark Use the qlik.app.bookmark.apply method to apply an existing bookmark to the current app. |
var config = {
host: 'QSE_domain',
prefix: '/',
port: 443,
isSecure: true,
webIntegrationId: 'web-integration-id-here' //only needed for SaaS editions
};
require(["js/qlik"], function(qlik) {
//open apps -- inserted here --
var app = qlik.openApp('c31e2aba-3b46-4b13-8b87-c5c2514dea1d', config);
//apply a bookmark
app.bookmark.apply('pPvpTN');
}
| c. | Remove an existing bookmark Use the qlik.app.bookmark.remove method to remove an existing bookmark. |
var config = {
host: 'QSE_domain',
prefix: '/',
port: 443,
isSecure: true,
webIntegrationId: 'web-integration-id-here' //only needed for SaaS editions
};
require(["js/qlik"], function(qlik) {
//open apps -- inserted here --
var app = qlik.openApp('c31e2aba-3b46-4b13-8b87-c5c2514dea1d',
config);
//remove a bookmark
app.bookmark.remove('pPvpTN');
}
